Cooking Steps

1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Boil the kettle. • Thinly slice leek. Roughly chop silverbeet. Finely chop garlic. • Place your hand flat on top of chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. • In medium bowl, combine garlic & herb seasoning, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken breast and toss to coat.

2

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook leek, stirring, until slightly softened, 2-3 minutes. • Add plain flour, garlic and risoni and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Stir in longlife cream (see ingredients), chicken-style stock powder and the boiling water.

3

• Transfer risoni to a baking dish, add silverbeet and cover tightly with foil. • Bake until liquid is absorbed and risoni is ‘al dente’, 25-30 minutes. TIP: ‘Al dente’ risoni is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre. TIP: If needed, add a splash of water to loosen the risoni.

4

• When the risoni has 10 minutes remaining, return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook chicken steaks until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm. TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.

5

• When the risoni is done, remove from oven and stir through the butter. Season to taste.

6

• Slice chicken. • Divide risoni bake between bowls. • Top with chicken. • Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
